Hello,

Taking Unwanted-72 pill within first 5 hrs of unprotected sex will give more than 95% protection against unwanted pregnancy. Her chance of pregnancy is EXTREMELY LOW.

She got withdrawal bleeding after 3-4 days due to effect of the pill. It is quite Normal and natural phenomena.

However, her period may be delayed for 1-2 weeks due to hormonal imbalance and mental stress. I suggest to undergo one home pregnancy test if her period is delayed more than 1 week.

Good luck and practice safe sex.
